“I’m just stating a fact.” Xander shrugged nonchalantly.

I shook my head and kept eating instead of giving him an answer.

“Well, I’m full,” I said a while. I’ve never eaten that fast in my life.

“Good. Let’s shower, then.” Xander stood up with grace.

“I’m joining to the party, too.” Alex said playfully but Xander was quick to snap at him.

“No, you’re not, brother.”

“What? Why?! You became a possessive bastard.” Alex protested like a whiny girl.

“You had your fun this morning, bro. And I won’t fuck her in the shower so don’t cry.” Xander scolded him.

He wouldn’t fuck me? That was how disappointment felt like. I should have been glad that I wouldn’t be late, but tell it to my slutty body.

“Okay…let’s do the shower. Because that’s the most important concern I have right now,” I said sarcastically and left the kitchen.

“You’re a bastard, Xander,” I heard Alex said to his brother.

“Then, it makes you one, too, brother. Just saying.” Xander snapped back at him but he didn’t sound so annoyed.

I quickened my pace toward Xander’s room but he caught me by my arm.

“Eager, Flame?” he asked huskily.

“Yep. I have more important things to do today than having a shower with a megalomaniac. I prefer it to be done already,” I answered him with a fake smile on my face.

“You’re pushing my limits, Flame. I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” he warned me with sinfully seductive voice.

“Why I feel like that’s not a threat or a warning? That’s more likely a promise or a teaser…” I whispered to his lips.

He narrowed his eyes.

“Let’s do the shower before I decide to give you a sneak peek,” he said with a dangerously hot voice and took my hand as we climbed the stairs.

“Strip,” he commanded when we got into his bathroom.

He frowned again but I couldn’t understand what he was thinking. I could never understand the way his mind worked ever since I’ve met him. When he told me he wouldn’t do any word games, I thought he would be like an open book and I would be able to read him easily, but it wasn’t like that.

Sometimes, he showed his feelings, slightly—with only a twitch at the corner of his lips or a momentarily spark in his eyes…But now, he shut himself off.

I didn’t know if it was normal, that I could sense the little changes in him but I didn’t care. I wanted to learn everything about him. I wanted him to let me in like I did with him in my life. Alex was already a part of my life and he made me feel like I was a part of his as well. But with Xander…Everything was blurry.

“I told you to strip, Flame. Not day-dream.” Xander said.

“I wasn’t daydreaming. I was trying to figure out what you’re thinking… and feeling,” I said and started to take off my clothes.

“What I’m feeling?” Xander asked confused. His frown deepened.

“Yes…you were almost playful today but then just boom.”

Xander took off his sweatpants without looking at me. His frown was still in place. His nakedness distracted me.

“Come here,” he said after he got into the shower and extended his hand to pull me in.

I took joined him in the shower, let the water spray us both. It was like a massage on my body, thanks to modern showerhead. Xander was silent with his arms wrapped around me from behind and I waited till he decided to speak.
